description | This article deals with the peasant community in southern Manabí and its organizational process during the past thirty years of rural development. Over the course of the last few decades –ever since the nineteen seventies– southern Manabí peasants have demonstrated a great ability to adapt to economic changes, through grassroots and second-level organizations, while maintaining a certain degree of resistance toward developmental intervention processes. In the face of coffee exportation and a production crisis, the peasant organizations of Manabí turned to crop diversification, short-cycle crop, pluriactivity, emigration, organizing, and establishing new institutions as a means for self-representation and in order to mediate between the peasant community itself, and public, as well as private, development entities. |

Over the course of the last few decades –ever since the nineteen seventies– southern Manabí peasants have demonstrated a great ability to adapt to economic changes, through grassroots and second-level organizations, while maintaining a certain degree of resistance toward developmental intervention processes. In the face of coffee exportation and a production crisis, the peasant organizations of Manabí turned to crop diversification, short-cycle crop, pluriactivity, emigration, organizing, and establishing new institutions as a means for self-representation and in order to mediate between the peasant community itself, and public, as well as private, development entities. Este artículo aborda el proceso organizativo del campesinado en el marco general del desarrollo rural de los últimos treinta años en la microregión del sur de Manabí, MSM. Se constata que a lo largo de las últimas décadas –del setenta en adelante– los campesinos de dicha microregión, a través de sus organizaciones de base y de segundo grado, han demostrado una gran capacidad de adaptación a los cambios económicos y, por otra parte, cierto margen de respuesta e incluso de resistencia ante los procesos de “intervención del desarrollo”. Las organizaciones campesinas manabitas, ante la crisis de la producción y exportación del café acudieron a la diversificación de las fincas, al cultivo de ciclo corto, a la pluriactividad y a la emigración, así como a la conformación de organizaciones e instituciones como un recurso, no solo de representación, sino también como instancias de mediación entre el campesinado y las entidades de desarrollo públicas y privadas.
